Pros

not much for most right now...

Cons

Rates will go down, layoffs and re-badging will occur in May. Then transitions will occur and inevitable loss of expertise and pay cuts, hours and benefits.

Long hours, no holidays off, and a management team focused only on magic sales numbers and not lives of their team.

Business Outlook

Pros

Secure company with established market share and top products. Decent pay.

Cons

Extremely early and long days, including weekends and all hollidays. Management consisting of inexperienced college grads that were chosen to meet diversity goals, not for their fit in the job. The company cares 100% about it's sometimes rediculous sales plans and innitiatives, but 0% about the happiness of it's worker ants that carry the company year after year. Repeating saftey meetings every year do not show a care for the employees but rather a fear of the employees suing them. Overall I would have to say that the culture of this company needs an extreme turnaround, but I am fairly certain that it is beyond the point of return.

Pros

Resume builder skills building & training learn variety of systems business ownership Strong diversity hiring (read cons)

Cons

Pay, compensation, benefits-very poor. VS other CPGs it is subpar and poor relative to other sectors. Hours, finance 70hrs wk. No vacations. After 5 yrs you will get 3 weeks off. Poor pension mgt, do you really believe Pep has protected its obligation if it is acquired, read the 10K-vague-positioning? Advancement &Recognition for successes. No sense of team, individual. Absolutely No camaraderie. Its like law school, employee vs employee.
